Forrester evaluated 13 major supply chain platform providers, ultimately positioning GEP among the top-tier solutions for large-scale enterprises. Analysts specifically pointed to the company’s focus on knowledge graphs, AI-native architecture, and superior network participant authentication as key differentiators. Subhash Makhija, CEO and co-founder of GEP, noted that the platform’s value stems from embedding intelligence directly into data and decision-making processes rather than applying it as a secondary layer over fragmented systems.

This latest recognition reinforces a string of industry accolades for the New Jersey-based firm. Throughout 2026, GEP has earned leadership positions from Gartner in the Magic Quadrant for Source-to-Pay Suites, The Hackett Group’s SolutionMap, and the IDC MarketScape assessment for AI-enabled direct spend. Customers surveyed by Forrester praised the firm for its transparency and service quality, signaling strong repurchase intent for the GEP Quantum Intelligence platform as it bridges the gap between procurement and broader supply chain execution.
